points claimed 4
Hi guys,
sorry, as said new to this posting lark, struggling to find way to edit original post, and not quite sure what comment meant about members map? i am already on that since i joined

hope thats ok?

Can any one advise please. I have an entry for isolated tower in comp, but someone has already added it previously onto Drone Scene? Can i still enter my photo into comp or is it disqualified if im not adding a new entry on DS etc??

Hi Barry in short you can still enter your photo of the Isolated Tower you just wont be abe to get the DroneScene bonus. We would suggest you have a good read through the rules (linked below)

We also suggest to go back and have a look at some of the previous entries already submitted by other competitors to see the way to layout your posts and whats information is required for each entry :slightly_smiling_face:
